Franz Kafka The Trial. - Kostenlose Archiv-Audioinhalte

On the morning of his thirtieth birthday, Josef K is arrested. But his crime is not revealed. In attempting to establish his innocence, K steps into a nightmarish world of institutional absurdity he can’t escape. The most quintessentially ‘Kafkaesque’ of Kafka’s work, The Trial is a sinister satire, charting one man’s descent into self-destruction in the face of a society that has become a machine. This daring, debauched and darkly comic adaptation is written by award-winning dramatist Ed Harris. CAST (in order of appearance) K ..... Iwan Rheon Franz/Albert .....
